Queen Hatshepsut's Temple


However, it should be noted that Hatshepsut's reign was a long and prosperous one. Though she saw warfare early on, eventually her reign ushered in an era of extended piece. She also re-established trading relationships and increased the wealth of Egypt, allowing the country to introduce a higher caliber of Egyptian architecture, the likes of which remained incomparable worldwide for hundreds of years.



Queen Hatshepsut was the fifth pharaoh of the eighteenth dynasty in Ancient Egypt. She was one of the country’s most successful pharaohs and certainly the longest-reigning indigenous woman in Egyptian’s history.
